ally in the diocese of Quincy during the

stated that three bishops and sixty clergy
had died during the year, and many lay
members; among the latter none stood
higher than Mr. Samuel Wilkinson OF
Peoria, who was treasurer of the Quincy
diocese, treasurer of the board of mis-
sions, and who had held many places OF
responsibility and trust; in the diocese

1t is said that there is Chicago de-

Hit Lions on the Nose.

1t has been said that the hurts suffered
in pugilism are particularly severe, and
that few pains equal the pain resulting
from bow of the fist squarcly and
forcibly delivered upon the nose. An
incident which goes to support this allie
cation, is reported from Paris. A lion
tanner, in one of the Boulevard shows,
was set upon by powerful and irritable
old lion, whose cage he had entered, ac
cording to habit, in the course of an en-
tertainment. The beast made his attack
without warming or particular cause, and
in an instant the man was upon his back,
between the lions paws. The spectators
screamed, thinking it was the end of the
lion tanner, but, like a flash, he was upon
his feet, and striking out with his right,
in accurate pugilistic style, landed his
fist upon the lions nose, with a spat that
was heard all over the place. The lion
wheeZed and sneczed and backed away,
shaking his head and shutting his eyes
as if dazed, while the man stepped
quickly, but with dignity, out of the
cage. The blow was a good one and if
it had fallen upon a man would, undoubt-
edly have knocked him out" EYi-
IDENTIFY, it made the lion tingle from the
spot where it was delivered to the tip of
his dropping and spiritless tail.

The Journal et' AnalyticaJ CHEMISTRY,
edited by Edward Hart, professor of
analytical chemistry of lafayette College,
contains an article by Professor Victor
c. Vaughan upon tyrotoxicon, the
poisonous substance sometimes found in
ice cream. This substance was dis
covered by Professor Vaughan about a
year ago, and he has since spent great
deal of time in examining it. He has
discovered that tyrotoxicon is identical
with diazo-benzol, substance which has
been known for many years, and which
was first prepared from aniline by Peter
GriesS, German chemist The poison
is caused by peculiar fermentation of
the cream before it is frozen, and it can
be separated from the cream by treat
ment with soda and then with ether,
which dissolves the poison. An important
point brought out by Professor Vaughan's
researches is that the poison is entirely
destroyed by boiling the ice cream mix
ture before it is frozen.

A prominent and experienced railroad
engineer who has long held an important
place in the West, declares that he had
rather have under him men simply edu-
Gated in high schools and practical work
than graduates of technicals schools He
says the latter are unwilling to take the
advice and orders of their superiors be-
cause they are so full of impracticable
book theories which they regard as the
highest authority. There is something
radically wrong in teaching which does
not impress upon the mind of the studen
the fact that practical experience is the
ultimate appeal. All young men just
starting out are apt to be over-wise in
their own conceit, and this fact needs
especially to be kept in mind by instruct
ors in institutions which claim to send
men out trained for special branches of
practical work.
